Rihanna's love for LeBron James runs deep.

LeBron James is arguably one of the best basketball players to ever do it and his resume speaks for itself. He is beloved by many and also hated by many. While having haters is never fun, it's hard to really care when one of your adoring fans is Rihanna herself. Over the years, Rihanna has been caught crushing on LeBron and years later, her love for him is still clear as day. Most recently, Rihanna attended a Los Angeles Lakers game wearing a...you guessed it, a Lebron James jersey. Considering LeBron is in LA now, it was only a matter of time before Rihanna came out and did this.

Perhaps the singer was even a good luck charm for James and the team as they defeated the Houston Rockets by a score of 111-106. LeBron had 29 points and was the leading scorer on the Lakers.

During the game, Riri was actually presented with her own "Badgalriri" jersey with the number one on the back. Now that she has her own custom Lakers swag, maybe we'll see her lusting after LeBron even more now. 

As for the Lakers, well, they are still 2.5 games out of a playoff spot but a win against a playoff team like the Rockets is probably a confidence booster moving forward.
